Use the compute console-history command and required parameters to delete an instance console history log:
```
oci compute console-history delete --instance-console-history-id <instance-console-history-id>
```
Or use a JSON file to set parameters:
```
oci compute console-history delete --from-json <file://path/to/file.json>
```
<file://path/to/file.json> is the path to a JSON file that defines the instance details. For information about how to generate an example of the JSON file, see Advanced JSON Options.
